So I am not actually in a postion where I have a full time job yet or actually even out of college. I do not plan on doing something detail related either/after. I do however detail on the side once and a while and have now learned to start charging people appropriately even if they are friends and family and it is okay to charge. I want to actually make some money for my efforts. I ran numbers on excel based on things and what other reputable places would charge and considered my market (upscale market definitely right outside nyc).
I however, dont necessarily have to be paying for utilities as I dont run a business (well legitimate business, its out of my driveway just as a big hobby). I was figuring it out and was wondering how much does everyone pay roughly for utilities per month. I would then subtract those out of my costs and come up with a fair price but still be able to make money.
Just for an idea, an interior and exterior would be about 270 on an suv roughly, no actual math was done, just plugging in numbers on excel, so I would find out utilities and other business costs im not paying and subtract it out.
If it seems like a bad idea, Id be open as to why, just that immediate family said you dont have utility and other business costs as such so you shouldnt charge as high
